Unrico Sims, of Long Beach, was arrested during a SWAT operation at a home in the 1400 block of Chestnut Avenue, according to the Long Beach Police Department. He was booked on suspicion of murder and was being held in lieu of $2 million bail.<\/p>\n
Sims is suspected in the killing of 33-year-old Long Beach resident Kenneth Shannon, whose body was found the morning of Sept. 3 in the 6500 block of Muriel Avenue, north of the 91 Freeway. According to police, the shooting is believed to have occurred late on Sept. 2.<\/p>\n
